Chapter 869: Return to the Zhiling District
After saying goodbye to Xu Lixue, Lu Ping and his party left the Happy Forest. After passing through the three-way area of the Treasure Forest, he re-entered the territory of the Xuanjun Empire. Then all the way to the south, the few hanging divine soldiers in his hands were still very eye-catching, but the road was finally safe, and he returned to the village on the outskirts of Zhiling City in a few days. Several people rushed to the abandoned courtyard where they stayed that day, and after entering the door, everyone immediately froze.
The abandoned hut, which was originally so simple that there was only a tattered straw mat, now looks quite neat. The dust was gone, the tattered straw mat had been replaced by a clean bedding, and a wooden table that had not been there was a few cups and bowls piled up.
The furnishings are still shabby, but it looks like someone lives here. Several people looked at each other, and before they could start discussing, they heard footsteps behind them, turned around, and saw Chu Min walking in from outside the courtyard with a few jugs of wine. When he saw a few people, he didn't show any surprise, nor did he smile, but frowned and said, "Just came back?"
"Cai?" Morin was slightly unconvinced.
"Emperor Xuan's order to revoke the wanted warrant has already been passed down, but you are too late. Chu Min said.
"It was I who was injured, so I was delayed for a few days. Su Tang stood up and said.
"It's okay. Chu Min looked at Su Tang and finally smiled.
"Hmm. Su Tang nodded, and everyone laughed. They don't have much to look forward to, they just want to be okay with each other. Therefore, their reunion does not look very exciting, but everyone's shallow smile is full of steadfastness and satisfaction.
"Teacher, are your injuries all right?" Ling Ziyan stepped forward and asked after skillfully taking the wine jugs from Chu Min's hands.
"I can't say it's fully recovered, but it's fine. Chu Min said, her tone is her usual free and easy, good is good, bad is bad, and she doesn't hide it at all.
"No one is bothering you here, is there? If so, tell Lu Ping quickly. Maureen said.
"What's the matter? This trip to Xuanjun City is very majestic?" Chu Min looked at Lu Ping.
"That's majestic!" Morin knew that it would be very boring to ask Lu Ping to answer, so he quickly grabbed the conversation, and described the scenes he had not experienced or witnessed with his own eyes, from the courtyard to the people huddled together in the hut and sitting on the ground.
"Happy!" After hearing this, Chu Min didn't dwell on the pros and cons of the consequences of doing so, but just raised the wine jug and took a big sip.
"Do your best. Lu Ping said, as Morin expected, a very boring attitude.
"So you're now preparing to go back to Gorge Peak City to rebuild the Wind Picking Academy?" Chu Min asked.
"Yes, do you want the teacher to come with us?" said Lu Ping.
Chu Min smiled: "Many years ago, someone asked me like this. ”
"Is it the dean?" Lu Ping knew that Chu Min and Guo Youdao were old acquaintances, but they had never heard the two talk about how they met and how they interacted.
"Yes. If I had nodded then, I would have been your senior now. When Chu Min said this, he looked at Fang Yizhu, and the title he used was not "you", but "you". Fang Yi listened to it and immediately understood the meaning of Chu Min's words. Chu Min knew the true purpose of Guo Youdao's establishment of the Wind Picking Academy, and he was once a person who was appreciated by Guo Youdao, but it was a pity that he didn't seem to be appreciated by Chu Min.
"Why?" Fang Yizhu asked subconsciously.
"It's too much trouble and doesn't fit my aesthetic. Chu Min said.
"Okay......" Fang Yizhu thought for a moment and agreed. He didn't have much contact with Chu Min, but Chu Min's temperament was so clear at a glance. Guo Youdao's request for the underworld practitioner is indeed very incompatible with Chu Min's temperament.
"You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Chu Min stood up and said at this time.
"Hmm. Everyone nodded.
"Let's eat right here. Chu Min said.
"This?" everyone looked left and right, confused. Although there are bowls and chopsticks in the house, it looks like a home, but no matter how you look at it, it is only enough for one person, right?
"I'm going to borrow some chopsticks. Chu Min said and went out.
A few people followed out curiously, and saw that Chu Min didn't go far after being discharged from the hospital, and went directly to the next courtyard. knocked on the door and went in, but she didn't come out, hugged a stack of dishes and chopsticks, and a couple in the house sent her out of the hospital, and the two sides chatted from time to time, looking very familiar. When he was about to be discharged from the hospital, Chu Min had two more cabbages and a large piece of tofu in his hand.
"How many days have we been gone?" Morin asked suddenly.
"About ten days. Fang Yi said.
"How do you feel like Teacher Chu Min has lived here all his life?" Mo Lin said, and saw that Chu Min had already come back with dishes and chopsticks.
"Go make a fire. Chu Min said after entering the hospital.
Ling Ziyan seemed to have such a daily routine when she lived with Chu Min, and hurriedly went into the half-collapsed kitchen in the courtyard. Before the smoke of the cooking stove rose, a broken pot sat on the stove, and the water inside had begun to gurgle. Chu Min didn't use a knife either, he controlled the spirit of qi casually, and under the command of the four, two cabbages and a large piece of tofu were cut together.
Soon, a pot of cabbage tofu boiled in white water was served. The color, aroma and shape don't seem to be very delicious from any point of view.
"Do it yourself. Chu Min signaled.
There wasn't even enough space to sit at the table, so in the end, one person had to come up and scoop a bowl. But two cabbages and one tofu, so many people seem to be very insufficient. The couple next door came over again at this time, and also thought of this, and brought a little pickle. Chu Min found a bag of white flour cakes out of nowhere, and everyone ate them like this.
The house was too narrow, and everyone squatted in the courtyard with bowls. The sun is setting in the west, and every family in the village is having dinner. It's just an ordinary village, the villagers don't have much to live on, they are all barely living, and no one can afford to eat delicious food. But even so, no matter which direction it comes from, the smell is much more delicious than everyone's bowl of white water cabbage tofu.
"Does anyone want to drink?" asked Chu Min at this time as he took out a flask from the house.
"It's worth drinking a pot after a long absence!" Fang Yizhu immediately rushed over to ask for a pot.
"You think the food is tasteless, don't you?" said Morin with despise.
"I'm not that hero, after all. Fang Yizhu said.
"That's not comparable. Maureen was also convinced. can eat Chu Min's meal deliciously, it is really Lu Ping. Even Su Tang is a little inferior to him.
"It's good to be able to do this all the time. Lu Ping was also sighing to Su Tang at this time.
Su Tang nodded, she knew what Lu Ping meant. He was not only referring to this meal, but also to the ordinary living atmosphere in this ordinary village, which made him feel at ease.
"Hopefully we can. Su Tang said.
"Difficult, look ......," Lu Ping said, pointing to the outside of the courtyard, and a person stopped walking in front of the courtyard gate, just from the clothes he could see that he was by no means a villager in this village.
"Lu Ping. The man looked into the courtyard and saw Lu Ping looking at him, so he casually said hello.
"Who are you?" Lu Ping asked. The person who came was not an ordinary person, and Lu Ping had already heard the voice of the power of courage.
"Why are you here?" At this moment, Chu Min also looked at the person who came and spoke.
"I heard that you have a lot of guests, so I'm here to join in the fun. What are you eating?" said the man who had already walked into the hospital, and asked as he asked, but he still looked at Lu Ping and answered his previous question.
"My name is Long Yuan, and I basically have the final say on this side of the Zhiling District. ”
I haven't seen you for a few days, and I've been busy with things lately......
